Today we've got a good mixed bag for you. Some new releases, some `80s punk throwbacks, a few show reviews…the whole buffet. And hey, I bet you couldn't guess five years ago that we'd have live reviews of both Bad Brains and Lifetime for you, eh?

• The Weakerthans may not have broken up recently, but they've got a Reunion Tour for you regardless
• A second opinion on Motion City Soundtrack's Even If It Kills Me
• Bad Brains rocking San Francisco
• Botch's hailed (and frequently ripped off) We Are the Romans arrives in reissued, deluxe form
• More at the reviews page
